One of our Buff Orpingtons decided to brood early this year and after 21 days, her chicks hatched right on time. We now have six new spring arrivals. The others are yet to start brooding, but this lady will brood again this summer. It is truly a marvel and never gets old watching a hen take care of her chicks. It was 26 degrees this morning, but her babies are warm underneath her.
Have a great day! Every comment is up-voted to show our appreciation and thanks for your up-vote, Tim and Joann.
